| Research Abstract |
On the basis of field works in the Arctic peoples in North America (Eskimo, Aleut, Tlingit, Athabaskan, etc.), interdisciplinary cooperation (linguistics and anthropology) attempted to elucidate the problems of (1) precontact ethnic boundaries and contacts, and (2) subsistence activities reflected in language.
New insights and information on some specific aspects of those problems have already been published in part (see attached). The tentative classification of North American native languages, which is closely related with ethnic boundaries, is presented in the bibliography (below). Preparation is being made for publishing more extensive results, however.
The absolute necessity of relying upon the written documentation (ethnography, linguistic description, etc.) in addition to oral information obtained in the fieldwork led to compiling a tentative bibliography of the materials collected in this project, which is admittedly the biggest collection of America native anthropological linguistics in Japan albeit a very meager one as yet.
